These were the questions that were asked in this episode of #AskDrBob. Click the blue box to watch the video. Thank you for sending us your general health questions. We hope they make a difference in your life.

1. I want to know more about acid reflux, my husband is having problem and the purple pill doesn’t help any more. Thank you!

Watch your food combinations (chicken and potato). Green vegetables with animal protein is optimal. Also, limit your water consumption with meals. Lastly, consider a digestive enzyme prior to the meal.

2. Any thoughts on hypoglycemia ???

The best way to avoid, is to stay away from sugar, this includes sweet fruits. Start your day with a protein or an avocado (fat). (Eggs, almond butter, chicken thigh are good breakfast foods).

3. What causes cold sores or fever blisters on the lips?

Always a lack of calcium, and sometimes vitamin D.

4. How can I prevent getting sick over the Thanksgiving and Christmas Season?

Two things: Minimal sugar and get sleep.

5. I keep losing my balance. I was diagnosed to have “vertigo”, what would I eat to get my balance back? My BP is also high most of the time.

Minerals are important (Celtic Sea Salt), you can also have misalignment in your neck. (More info in video).
